This appears to be more recent, but is quite impressive.

does anyone remember who was the 1200-player who won a game against one of our top players about 2 years ago? I can't remember either player, but I'm sure someone knows which game I'm talking about. if I remember right, it wasn't even a huge blunder, but the low rated guy just played very well...

or was it a draw?

This is correspondence chess where you can go to sleep, look over the position and think. If you want to tell us a normal 1900 cannot see a mate in one in correspondence chess, something is wrong somewhere.

Talk to someone over 1500 in ICC. Oh I forgot wormwood you are 1100 ICC so you cannot see mate in one.

Any player no matter how high their rating is can make a mistake, even if they have a year for each move, the fact that this is correspondence does not mean that all players actually study all games in depth, I know 50 percent of my games I only look at the board for a few minutes after my opponent has moved, have a minute or two on analasis board then move, sometimes I just move after 30 seconds of looking at the board due to time pressures in life or just playing a casual game or whatever the reason.

Any player can blunder at any time

Edit for spelling

Yes I know it's bullet and I messed up on move 40, but a win against someone nearly 1000 points higher still counts! 😏

I beat Alex Finkel in a 5 minute game, on time 🙂 I have won in simuls against a FM but I don't recall his name.

I beat Artur Jusopov in a simul.
